Help Deciding

[Bobby Aquitania]

Cat back for my vote. The reader usually makes up in their mind much worse from personal experience, then what the artist can show. The cat forward is still cartoony, so you lessen the blow, even if it's meant to horrify. If it were realistic with oodles of blood, then yeah that would be way over the top. But cat facing away, I can imagine all kinds of stuff happening... where it's biting, how bad the bird looks, etc.

Good job all round. Hope that helps.

okay so i scratched both ideas and decided to play with light and atmosphere. Being a cartoonist, so i decided to take a "saturday morning cartoon" approach with the scene. let me know what you think.

@Naters-Calderone I really like your style, however for the prompt I prefer your old man and baby concept more. But if it was me, I would take all of these ideas to finish. They are all great.

[Jiří Kůs]

I like the last one most

[Naters.Art]

@Chip-Valecek yeah, for concept, that's my favorite one too. but it's not very dynamic. they look for skill over "cleverness"

I love the one with the policeman and the box of spilled donuts and oozey leg. It made me laugh

[amberwingart]

I really like the policeman one - that one's really creative & you got an awesome angle on it! Really interesting angles appear to be one of your strengths!

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen thanks. laughter is always my goal

[Lee White]

@Naters-Calderone not sure I agree with that one. Concept will always be #1 and execution will be secondary to that.

[Naters.Art]

@Lee-White good to know...that makes the decision harder though

[Naters.Art]

I played around with the lighting on this one too, which is very similar to the lighting in the cop image...but it just doesn't have slime... I haven't worked on the old mans background yet, but i wanted to check with you all to see if i should continue with it or do you still think i should go with the monster pic? also, please let me know what I could improve upon in either.

[Chip Valecek]

@Naters-Calderone I still like this one best, i would have him looking down at the baby vs out into the distance.
